Huey Pierce Long, Jr. was an American politician who was serving as a Democratic member of the United States Senate when he was assassinated in 1935. Prior to being elected to the senate he had served as the 40th Governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932. He was a populist and an outspoken one at that he openly denounced the rich and the banks and called for “Share Our Wealth” program which he created in 1934 under the motto “Every Man a King”. He proposed radical welfare measures and under his leadership hospitals and educational institutions were expanded and massive infrastructural improvements were made in rural areas. While highly popular among some sections of the society, he was also a controversial figure who gained notoriety because of his executive dictatorship through which he gained control of his home state, Louisiana. Born into an impoverished background, Long was a self-made man. Smart and ambitious, he entered politics at a young age and soon gained considerable fame because of his excellent oratory skills and unconventional personality. He was a champion of the poor and opposed excessive privileges to the rich which earned him some powerful enemies. At the peak of his career he announced that he would run for the presidency but was tragically assassinated shortly after he made this announcement. |
